Is God a bigot because he condemns premarital between a man and a woman ?
first of all there is no god, second of all there is no biblical stricture against it, even though the christians want you to interpret the bible their way. God did not frown on men having concubines in the old testament--these were unmarried women used for ual purposes--sounds like premarital to me. (By the way--marriage--the laws against adultry--are all to make sure the parentage of children is clear. If a married woman slept with somebody not her husband--well--the parentage of the child is unknown--and there are large problems in a patriarchal society with inheritance. If a man married or otherwise sleeps with an unmarried woman--the parentage is either known not to be the child of his wife and therefore unable to inhert--or is not a child of marriage and therefor will not inherit. This is where the good old double standard came from.
